What are your thoughts? Part of me likes the blue but the practical part of me says white exterior is more easily visible and therefore safer.

Was a loyal Toyota owner since college (50 years ago). Current Camry is 21 years old. End of life. Thought, "no problem, I'll get another Camry." Then I learned: the world has changed. Can no longer walk into Carmax and buy a new Toyota without the hassle of a traditional dealer. So that led me to go to a traditional dealer. Yuck! After half an hour of being passed around from dude to dude trying to get my business, I said, no way. I came in for a test drive and all I got was this fake niceness and BS upsells before I even got what I came for.

I'm not giving my business (or time) to this ridiculous sales practice in 2026. Went to Tesla, test drove (or the car drove me), and in an hour I had placed my order.

Toyota, you need to change your sales practices. A Toyota owner is a no-nonsense person who wants a car that works. That mindset is NOT compatible with going into an old-style dealership and putting up with nonsense before handing over your hard-earned cash.

I'm gettting old and, yes, much less forgiving of sharks wasting my precious time. Change.

Literally no other company that I interact with pesters me about a backup form of payment. What is this all about? So annoying.
